| 摘要： | Belle Chasse, La.-based C&C Marine & Repair has delivered the mv. Zephyr, a 6,600 hp. triple screw towboat, to Kirby Inland Marine. The vessel, which Kirby will operate under a long-term lease from Hines Furlong Line, is the final boat in a three-boat series the shipyard built for Hines Furlong.Like the mv. Scarlett Rose Furlong and the mv. Bowling Green, the first two boats in the series, the Zephyr measures 170 feet by 50 feet and offers a pilothouse eye level of 39 feet 3 inches. CT Marine of Portland, Maine, designed the Zephyr.The Zephyr is equipped with three Cummins QSK60-M main engines from Cummins Mid-South, which are paired with three Reintjes WAF 1173 H/V reduction gears from Karl Senner LLC. That combination turns three 100-inch-diameter stainless steel fixed pitch propellers from Sound Propeller Systems that are housed within CT Marine-designed kort nozzles. Directing thrust from the Zephyr's propellers are a total of six rudders-two for each wheel-which comprise CT Marine's own patented double steering rudder system. |
